Faux bois is French for “false wood” and it’s showing up all over furniture and fabrics this fall, from drapes to lampshades and even this aluminum cocktail table.

The natural wood grain motif imparts a rustic feel that’s perfect for fall. Begin experimenting with faux bois by accessorizing your home with smaller pieces that have wood grain patterns, such as linen napkins, a flowerpot or candlesticks.

If you love this aesthetic, you can invest in a larger piece like a faux bois dining table or faux bois wallpaper. Here are some more ideas for incorporating faux bois into your home décor.
